Yes, Prime Minister of Japan

"Canada has taken advantage of the United States by relying on its protection. In fact, Canada should become a state of the American empire!"

The news sparked nationwide protests in Canada, with widespread criticism of Vance's folly.

However, the whole world is already tired of seeing this routine.

Trump used this tactic before, and the result was repeated extreme pressure, which basically meant getting Canada to give him money.

Even Canadians are mocking Vance online, calling him "a clumsy clown imitating Trump."

Those Republican Americans who fled from the United States to Canada because they opposed the reform of the imperial system also mocked Vance online: "You bastard, we're right here on the north bank of the St. Lawrence River, come and arrest us if you dare!"

This strange impression that Vance would definitely not attack Canada is naturally because Trump chickened out. Trump is the Taco, and Vance is the fat pig, so he must have chickened out too.

But Vance is different from Trump; he's not backing down this time.

Trump's meddling in Canada is just about getting money, and incidentally, providing emotional value to voters.

Vance, on the other hand, urgently needs to strengthen the foundation of the dollar's hegemony.

He desperately needed to prove to his supporters the great changes he had brought to his rule, rather than a month-long massive economic freefall.

However, at the recent cabinet meeting, even the Pentagon disagreed with attacking Canada.

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Grady stated, "There is no need to expand the battlefield if the benefits can be obtained through negotiations. The U.S. military can no longer sustain a conquest plan spanning thousands of miles."

Brother, you're still waging a war against Mexican drug cartels.

Is the US military thinking it can be invincible and handle two wars at the same time by starting another conflict in the North?

Vance's solution was to find the First Army, which only obeyed his commands.

“I demand that you occupy Canada, and I also hope that you will send troops to occupy Alaska.”

Vance gave the order.

'Mad Dog' Solz resolutely refused:

“That won’t do. You have to make sure that Japanese aircraft carriers don’t appear off the coast of Alaska first, otherwise the First Army Headquarters in San Diego won’t move.”

Vance became dissatisfied:

"Are you that afraid of Li Xinghe?"

Solz said matter-of-factly:

“We were terrified. When we saw General Matthew McLane jump into the blast furnace with a huge pile of documents, we knew that Taiwan was no longer safe and that we were all his prisoners.”

I can't beat them. Mei is here, I have Mei, but Lin is here...

What's even more troublesome is that the First Army also needs to order its subsequent military supplies from Li Xinghe.

Unfortunately, the First Army's East Coast Division and West Coast Division, one tasked with protecting Vance's Washington Throne and the other with deterring the Democratic mafia in California, couldn't avoid Li Xinghe, whom Vance considered a scoundrel.

Vance struggled to his feet and spun around, then, after careful consideration, said:

"What if I told you that I reached an agreement with him, that I gave him a share of the benefits of Alaska, and that he supported my annexation of Canada?"

As an emperor, Vance would naturally approve of a deal to exchange Alaska for Canada.

Furthermore, once the roads in Canada are cleared, the US military can quickly advance into Anchorage, which would scare away Li Xinghe's men, allowing them to reclaim Alaska and achieve a win-win situation.

Mad Dog Solz's eyes lit up; he realized that while Vance was stupid, he was occasionally useful.

"Oh? If that's true, I could take Ottawa overnight, and then occupy Montreal, Toronto, and Quebec City. Do you have any correspondence?"

"No, it's a gentleman's agreement."

Vance emphasized:

"Verbal."

Vance wouldn't leave any written evidence.

……

Christmas Eve (Gregorian calendar).

Li Xinghe's home in the Royal Palace was filled with beautiful women, all accompanying the 15-year-old Queen of Australia and New Zealand on her first Christmas Eve since arriving in the East.

To cheer up the Queen, who was still experiencing occasional morning sickness, Ai Azuma, who was three years older than Charlotte, became her close companion; they even slept in the same bed at night. So when Queen Charlotte went to search for her pajamas, she ended up digging up a pile of erotic clothing hidden in Li Xinghe's house—perhaps this is a unique ability naturally possessed by women.

She was holding up a nearly translucent Hanfu-style gauze skirt:

"Can I wear this as pajamas?"

These are all sex toys produced by Hi Company, owned by Kannon-Taki Bluebird, and there's a huge swarm of them in the Imperial Palace. If the Imperial Palace were to suddenly be destroyed one day, future researchers might wonder if people in that era wore completely transparent clothes every day?

Seeing this, the ladies in the room all looked at Li Xinghe with disdain.

Li Xinghe gave Guanyin Longqingniao a speechless look, but Guanyin Longqingniao not only didn't think it was her fault, but also gave Queen Charlotte a thumbs up in praise:

"Wear it, it will look absolutely stunning tonight."

Just then, a call came in from Washington.

Solz asked, 'Has Li Xinghe reached an agreement with Vance?'

Li Xinghe's answer was very affirmative:

"Of course. Alaska's economic privileges are in exchange for our non-interference in the U.S. annexation of Canada."

Li Xinghe hadn't expected this at all. He was wondering, how could Vance be so weak?

Is it possible that there are no more aerial bombs at the airbase?

After hanging up the phone, Li Xinghe demonstrated his intelligence to Olympia, Hua Yingmei, and Shui Jingtianping:

"Vance has now agreed. He's giving us Alaska semi-independent economic privileges. Japan not only recognizes the US annexation of Canada, but also supports Vance in crowning himself King of Canada, Duke of Toronto, Duke of Vancouver, and so on. Anyway, he's about to launch a conquest of Canada."

Let's first see how Vance plays.

……

Washington, D.C., is 13 hours ahead of Tokyo.

Vance's buttocks are still not healed. As the world's first emperor to ascend the throne with a colostomy bag inserted, he still needs painkillers every night to sleep peacefully.

Painkillers are a typical example of addictive drugs in the United States.

Yes, Vance has now started using drugs to gradually heal his pain.

The medicine His Majesty uses is, of course, of high purity, high quality, and highly addictive. But just like the devaluation of the dollar, Vance can only hold onto the present and consider the future later.

As Christmas Eve, December 25, 2030, approached, the operation to launch the attack on Canada entered the execution phase.

The new commander of the First Army, nicknamed "Mad Dog," Soltz, personally led 30,000 American troops from New York City, which was occupied by the First Army and was teeming with millions of sewer rats and tens of thousands of red Communist rats hiding in the sewers, and quietly set off into New York State.

What most people around the world don't know is that New York State is much larger and much more desolate than New York City, with wilderness often uninhabited for long periods of time, and the northernmost part of New York City extends all the way to the St. Lawrence River, which forms the border between the United States and Canada.

Due to the development of trade integration in North America, New York State and Ottawa, the capital of Canada, across the river have built many bridges, promoting economic cooperation between the two sides.

These bridges across the river naturally became a guarantee for the First Army's unimpeded passage.

"Canadian army? Hmph, a useless army of less than 30,000 men." Solz completely looked down on the fighting capabilities of the Canadians.

Although Canada nominally has five divisions, it actually only has three standing mechanized brigades, which are conventional forces capable of combat. Following the peculiar British system of recruiting soldiers at their place of origin and using regimental headquarters as administrative units, these three mechanized brigades are nominally also three combat regiments.

Besides Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry Regiment stationed in Edmonton, Alberta, the second is the Royal 22nd Infantry Regiment stationed in Quebec. This is a French-speaking military unit and does not speak the same language as the other two regiments.

Yes, Canada has only three mechanized brigades with three mechanized combat regiments, two of which are English-speaking and one is French-speaking. The total strength is less than 30,000 men.

The only military force capable of protecting Ottawa, the Canadian capital, is the Royal Canadian Mounted Corps, stationed at Camp Petawawa Garrison, 80 miles northwest of Ottawa. It consists of two mechanized battalions and two light infantry battalions, approximately 5000 soldiers, along with a number of infantry fighting vehicles.

In other words, if you crossed the St. Lawrence River from the border of New York State and rushed towards Ottawa, there were practically no Canadian guards nearby.

It was practically a land grab.

Although the First Army's equipment was outdated, after returning to the United States and replacing a large number of warehouse kits, they managed to put together old M60 tanks, Bradley personnel carriers, and a large number of WWII-style mechanized kits for towing artillery.

To conceal their actions, they set off at dusk several days prior, using an ant-like transport method to move their main forces to the US-Canada border.

How can I conceal myself?

In the small town of Ogdensburg on the northern side of New York State, the residents are probably unaware of how terrifying these outsiders are gradually appearing at the truck driver service station and the riverside converted jail on their east side.

The minor offenders in the prison had been released, so the place became the soldiers' accommodation.

This prison also became a place where soldiers of the First Army spent the Lunar New Year.

As Christmas Eve arrived, the soldiers of the First Army were engaged in a passionate New Year's military training bullying program. Veteran soldiers beat new recruits, their sticks flying like shadows, causing the new recruits to scream in agony.

As an old-style army, the First Army combined the strict discipline of East Asia with the brutality and tyranny of North America. After experiencing the pain that the veterans had gone through, the new recruits also passed on that pain to the new recruits.

But General Solz didn't care.

Standing in front of the Ogdensburg-Prescott International Bridge, Mad Dog Salz twitched his military boots and peered through binoculars at the distant town of Johnston, which was still celebrating Christmas.

He glanced at his watch and waved his hand, saying:

“Cross the river here and head 46 miles north to Ottawa.”

"A mere 46 miles? I'll punch my way through!"

"set off!"

A roaring sound rang out as the engines of the old M60 tanks roared as they carried soldiers from the U.S. First Army onto the international bridge.

The soldiers held the Canadian army in utter contempt for its fighting capabilities, while holding up military placards with Li Xinghe's portrait, just like the Haitians in Florida, using the power of Li Xinghe's idol worship to prove that they had not been beaten in East Asia in vain.

This Christmas, let Canadians see just how formidable these American beasts, honed in East Asia, really are!

Chapter 885: The Ottawa Civilian-Military Competition, 1935 Million Square Kilometers (4800 words)

Night had fallen.

The Christmas season is so joyful. Although it is a tough year following an economic crisis, everyone still does their best to buy Christmas gifts for their children and have a peaceful and happy Christian year.

Due to the continued drain on its economy by the United States, Canada's economy is facing even greater difficulties than it appears. Amidst mass unemployment, a burgeoning anti-Indian movement has emerged. Whether they are Sikhs wearing turbans or Indians defecating everywhere, they are all collectively rejected and driven back by the public. Consequently, Canada has experienced significant population changes in recent years, with millions of Indians being forced to leave.

Along the densely populated banks of the St. Lawrence River, Canadians have now raised banners to condemn the Liberal Party of Canada, determined to oust Trudeau's successor, Mark Carney, this year.

Tanks of the First Army climbed the Ogdensburg-Prescott International Bridge, their guns pointed at the Johnston Customs Post.

There were no staff members on duty at the station, since everyone was celebrating the Lunar New Year.

So tens of thousands of troops quietly crossed the US-Canada border, and no Canadians noticed the roaring army crossing the border.

The 46-kilometer drive is only an hour's drive. Due to Ottawa's status as the capital city, like Canberra in Australia, it is a compromise product of balancing the population contradiction between large cities and major economic areas. Therefore, the population area around Ottawa is not dense.

After passing through the customs in the town of Johnston, the First Army set foot on Highway 416, heading straight for Ottawa.

Also because it was Christmas Eve, there were no patrolling police or cars on the roads at night. The vast plains were almost only dotted with the occasional bird flying across the sky and raccoons wandering around the highway.

It wasn't until the First Army changed course and embarked on Highway 417, entering Ottawa, the capital of Canada, that some Canadians finally realized something was wrong.

Why is this unit flying the American flag?

But their suspicions ended there, and they went home for Christmas.

But the menacing soldiers showed no mercy as they stormed into the houses near the Canadian Parliament, where government officials lived, and relentlessly pursued Mark Carney and his ministers.

The brutal pursuit elicited screams as men, women, the elderly, and children were driven out of the building. Soldiers scanned each person one by one with facial recognition devices before going upstairs to investigate.

"Have you found Mark Carney!?"

"They've caught Trudeau, but the current prime minister is nowhere to be found."

Solz's change of approach:

"Arrest his family first."

“We’ve found Carney’s wife and kids; he must be nearby.”

At this point, many Canadians had already sensed that something was wrong, but they still didn't realize that their government and parliament had been taken down.

After a two-hour chase, the First Army finally captured Mark Carney.

When the old man realized something was wrong, he abandoned his wife and children, climbed over the wall, and hid in a trash can. If it weren't for a few raccoons climbing into the trash can and startling him, the soldiers probably wouldn't have found him.

By the early morning of the following day, the 7th Division of the First Army of the American Empire had finally gained full control of Ottawa, the capital of Canada.

Soldiers were on duty everywhere, on major roads and in shops.

The Canadian flag was taken down and thrown on the ground, and replaced with the American flag.

It wasn't until the early hours of Christmas that Canadians, who no longer adhered to the traditional Christian vigil, realized that Canada had fallen.
